Product Information

Full details

The MHG Living Polyester Fibre Filling is a premium, lightweight stuffing designed for hobbyists and professionals looking to add soft, durable volume to cushions, pillows, quilts, and soft toys. It offers excellent shape retention and a hypoallergenic, breathable composition that keeps projects feeling plump and fresh over time. While it is perfect for most craft applications, users should note that the 500g volume is best suited for small to medium-sized projects, and large-scale upholstery may require multiple packs.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Is this product machine washable?

Yes, the fibre itself is durable and washable, though you must follow the care instructions for the outer fabric of your project.

How much does 500g cover?

One 500g pack is typically enough to fill two standard-sized decorative scatter cushions.

Can this be used for professional upholstery?

This is primarily designed for soft furnishings and crafts; it is generally too soft for load-bearing seat cushions.

Is it safe for baby toys?

Yes, the material is hypoallergenic, making it a suitable choice for soft toys intended for children.

Does it lose its fluffiness over time?

While highly resilient, all polyester fillings may compress over years of heavy use; a quick tumble dry or hand-fluffing usually restores the original loft.

Troubleshooting

The stuffing feels lumpy inside the item

Massage the fabric from the outside to break up clumps, or remove the filling to tease it apart manually before re-inserting.

Filling is escaping through the fabric seams

Ensure your project uses a tight stitch pattern or a high-thread-count fabric to prevent the fine fibres from migrating through.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Retains shape and volume over long periods
  • Hypoallergenic and suitable for sensitive skin
  • Lightweight without compromising on support
  • Breathable material prevents odor trapping
  • Easy to manipulate into corners of soft toys

Cons

  • 500g quantity may be insufficient for large furniture
  • Can be messy if not handled carefully during stuffing
  • May require regular fluffing after heavy use

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To use the MHG Living Polyester Fibre Filling, simply tear off the desired amount and feed it gradually into your fabric project. For items like cushions, start by stuffing the corners first to ensure even distribution before filling the center.

Compatibility: This filling is compatible with most fabric types, including cotton, polyester, and wool blends.

Care Instructions: Items stuffed with this fibre are typically machine washable depending on the outer casing fabric; however, always check the care label on your specific project item. To maintain the 'plump' look over years of use, occasionally place cushions or soft toys in a tumble dryer on a low, cool air setting for a few minutes to redistribute the fibres.
